TCR specificity prediction is advancing rapidly. The central question is not only which TCR sequence recognizes an antigen, but also which TCR pairings make recognition possible & where is the binding boundary? Our new paper tackles this question. 🧵

Researchers from St. Jude and collaborating institutions developed AdaptiveFlow, an AI-informed platform, that can virtually screen 69 billion drug-like molecules with a 1,000-fold reduction in computational costs. By expanding access to ultra-large virtual screening, the open-source platform could help accelerate therapeutic discovery. https://t.co/37C3ya7NvU

PhIX-MS is out in Molecular Cell! We use rapid in situ photo-crosslinking to trap transient proteasome interactions, then combine crosslinking MS, cryo-EM and AlphaFold to define how they bind.
